Flies-Away is an enrolled member of the Hualapai Nation, located on the South Rim of the Grand Canyon, in Arizona, U.S.A. A community and nation-building consultant special- izing in justice system development, Flies-Away was chief judge for the Hualapai Tribal Court from 1996 to 1998, then associate judge until 2001. He is now visiting judge at Gila River Indian Community Court of Appeals and Trial Court in central Arizona. A graduate of Stanford University in Eng- lish Literature, he holds a Master of Public Administration from Harvard University and is a candidate for Juris Doctor from Arizona State University College of Law.

The Hualapai tribal council appointed Flies-Away chief judge after his first year of law school. “There has never been a Hualapai to go to law school before me,”hesaid. But Flies-Away has no interest in being “a regular lawyer.” It’s more important to him to help his people develop their own justice systems and establish community and nation- hood. To that end, he currently consults for the Tribal Law and Policy Institute.
